Polarized light microscopy

We have developed an enhanced polarized light microscope (ePLM), which is capable of
measuring birefringence, orientation and anisotropy of any birefringent material. Polarization
optics are replaced with precision grade components and placed to computer controlled
rotation tables. The system is controlled with Macintosh G4 computer using
IpLab 3.55 software (Figure 2).
